A box contains 5 strawberry chocolates, 6 coffee chocolates and 2 peppermint chocolates. If one of the chocolates is picked from the box at random, find the probability of the following events by completing the activity.

Activity : Let ‘S’ is the sample space.

∴ n(S) = 5 + 6 + 2 = 13

Event B: it is a peppermint chocolate.

∴ n(B) = `square`

∴ P(B) = `square/("n"("S"))`     .......[Formula]

P(B) = `square/13`

उत्तर

Let ‘S’ be the sample space.

∴ n(S) = 5 + 6 + 2 = 13

Event B: it is a peppermint chocolate.

∴ n(B) = 2

∴ P(B) = `("n"("B"))/("n"("S"))`     .......[Formula]

P(B) =  `2/13`

A card is drawn from a well shuffled pack of 52 playing cards. Find the probability of the event, the card drawn is a red card.

Activity: Let ‘S’ be the sample space.

∴ n(S) = 52

Event A: Card drawn is a red card.

∴ Total red cards = `square` hearts + 13 diamonds

∴ n(A) = `square`

∴ P(A) = `square/(n("S"))`    ......[Formula]

P(A) = `26/52`

P(A) = `square`
